We challenge you: give a student a summer job in their field

Do you remember your first proper summer job? You surely learnt a lot there.

Right now, far too many students are struggling to get their first work experience in their field in an exceptionally tight labour market. That’s why we challenge you to hire a student for next summer.

Offering a summer job isn’t just a one-summer recruitment decision. It’s the easiest way to build a talent pipeline. It’s an investment in your company’s continuity, because without juniors there will be no seniors in Finnish working life.

Today’s student is tomorrow’s professional.

I appeal to businesses: What if we join forces and take students’ summer job opportunities to the next level?
